Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) likened conservative Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia to famous fictional character Harry Potter on Wednesday and suggested his liberal detractors were like the “death eaters” depicted in the popular children’s series.

“If this was a Harry Potter movie, liberals would put Justice Scalia on a wanted poster as undesirable number one,” said Hatch. “And yet they just can’t seem to look away. The principles and laws on which he stands are so compelling… that whether you love him or hate him, you simply must deal with him.”

In the seventh Harry Potter book, the “death eaters” refer to Harry Potter as “undesirable number one” and dispense wanted posters bearing his name across the wizarding world.

Watch it:

Despite what Hatch may think, Scalia’s detractors do not actually want to bring about Justice Scalia’s destruction in order to fulfill a prophecy that will enable the unchecked reign of our Dark Lord. Indeed, even if we were to raise a magical army of evil wizards bent on destroying conservative justices, it is unclear why we would name Justice Scalia our leading enemy.

But compared to Justice Thomas, Scalia is hardly the Harry Potter of people who want to do awful things to the Constitution. Scalia isn’t even the Ron Weasley of people who want to do awful things to the Constitution. He’s more like Neville Longbottom.
